1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,280
Speaker 1: We got the guys in today, review the game tape,

2
00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: talk through a few self scout things. We're gonna get

3
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 1: the guys on the field today. We're gonna split the

4
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: team a little bit based on kind of where some

5
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:09,479
Speaker 1: of the guys bodies are at. So we're gonna have

6
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: the majority of the older guys who've played a lot

7
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: of volume in last week's game. You know, they're gonna

8
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: work a lot with the trainers and strength staff after

9
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: a walk through today. We'll keep a lot of younger

10
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,959
Speaker 1: guys out of some extra developmental work and we'll do

11
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: something very similar tomorrow as well. So be on the

12
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: field a little bit over an hour today. Total h

13
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: different plans, and we'll regroup on the back end for

14
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: some meetings, continue some self scouting building, some things going

15
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: in the future. Opponents that be seting questions. You guys,

16
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 1: have you got a normal body week? Thing? Is that

17
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,279
Speaker 1: what you did last year or what the Patriots last year?

18
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 1: Was completely different because we the COVID situation last year.

19
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:43,519
Speaker 1: Last year's plan was to come out and have a

20
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 1: couple of good practices. Uh, due to the circumstance we

21
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 1: found ourselves the COVID last year when completely virtual last year,

22
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: so we actually lost that time. Now we've done different things,

23
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 1: different programs I've been, and I think it's important to

24
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: do what's best for your team at that time and

25
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: not to try to follow some template of what's going on.

26
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: There's a large focus right now trying to get our

27
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: team just healthy and fresh. We have a lot of

28
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: guys played a lot of snaps, have done a good

29
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: job for us, and they're smaller guys. Want to make

30
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: sure they get as much rest they can this week,

31
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: but then mentally they've got to make sure they get

32
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: you know, either introduction and new things we're gonna do

33
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: or corrections of things we have to clean up. But

34
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: it's important mentally and make sure we make progress this week.

35
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 1: In terms of coming up, you mentioned needing some guys

36
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: needing the rest and stuff coming out of the bye. Obviously,

37
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: get the bonus day on that Monday, like a week

38
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 1: from yesterday. What do you think you guys will do

39
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: anything that day or are you gonna give those guys

40
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 1: Monday coming back? Yeah, we will, We'll come in up.

41
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: It'll be a day. Actually, this one will mirror very

42
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: much what we did last year coming out of the bye. Week.

43
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: Last year we actually did this and found it to be,

44
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 1: you know, a pretty good way to kind of phase

45
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: them back in. So after a few days off will

46
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: bring them back to be mostly individual fundamental focus. We'll

47
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: do a couple of things in terms of group teach together,

48
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 1: but because it's gonna be a longer week anyway, it'll

49
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: be kind of get them back, get the move, and

50
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: get their bodies back into a Tuesday by day off

51
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: back into work on Wednesday. Joe, how do you balance

52
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: Obviously you're looking for a mental break of physical break

53
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: for everybody, but also for your coaching staff, right, how

54
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: do you balance that versus you have a game that's

55
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: on the horizon. I mean, how much do you guys

56
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: just completely box it away until you get back Monday

57
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: or you know, how do you balance that? No, I

58
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: always think it's important and on the front end of

59
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: these weeks, you put in the work. So our guys

60
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 1: are working last and I will work in tonight. We'll

61
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,119
Speaker 1: get the coaches and players out here tomorrow afternoon. Coach

62
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: will get out a little bit later than the players will.

63
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,399
Speaker 1: But to me, it's about you still have the things

64
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: you have to do, right. So they had projects working

65
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: into this week in terms of self scout, looking internally

66
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: at what we're doing schematically, personnel wise, what can we

67
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: do better going forward, and then also looking to you know,

68
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:37,959
Speaker 1: future opponents coming up. You want to go ahead and

69
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 1: get a jump starting those guys right there. So in

70
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: terms of the game planning specifically for Tampa coming out

71
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 1: of the buy, we'll jump on that as a stafford

72
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: when we get back. But in terms of the you know, breakdowns,

73
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 1: the cut ups, you know, the internal and the individual

74
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: thoughts on how we should play those games, we'll get

75
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: a jump start on those as the staff. For the

76
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: player's perspective, it's you want to make sure physically you

77
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: get them back as much as possible. For guys that

78
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: need more work on the field, you know, get them

79
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: as much individualized teaching and fundamental work as you can get.

80
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: We got a lot of younger players we're anticipating, expecting

81
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 1: to help our team down this stretch. We've got a

82
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: lot of guys on practice squad or haven't had a

83
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: lot of game experience yet. We got to get them

84
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: extra work these next two days. And it's good in

85
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: a smaller group saying and really make sure they get

86
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 1: all the coaching they can possibly get film to review

87
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,839
Speaker 1: it on the back end and give them just enough.

88
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: You know, if a jump start going this back end

89
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 1: of the season, that they're more confident going out there

90
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: next This stood out to you during the self scout?

91
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: What has stood out to you during the self scout? Well,

92
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 1: it's a volume of things. I mean, there's a lot

93
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: of things we've done well and things got it correct.

94
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: On to me this time of year, you know, it's

95
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: more important with the coaches we look at through this

96
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: week of truly the self scout of what we have

97
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: to do, and we're talking to meetings about that and

98
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: then really get a large part of that to the

99
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: players on Monday when we come back. Okay, there's a

100
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: lot of things we want to sit down, have conversations

101
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 1: such as rushing on through it and make sure we

102
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: find the best ways of doing things or tweaking things

103
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: going forward. To me, the fundamental is always the number

104
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: one thing embass with the players this time of year.

105
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: Go back through your penalties, your turnovers. You know you're

106
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: tackling your open field running. Go through those things and

107
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: talk as a team of what we have to do

108
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: better as a team, we have to correct and they

109
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: have to understand. We come back in the next week

110
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: while we're working certain fundamental drills and while we're changing

111
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: maybe a couple of things in practice to emphasize the

112
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: things that do better. But to me, you know, you

113
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: come out of camp, you want to be as crispy

114
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: you can fundamentally the reality as it takes off septem

115
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: to really get in that kind of football mode of

116
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: fundamentals and conditioning, and then you've got to go ahead

117
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 1: and re emphasize it going through this part of the

118
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: season to get them back thinking about the fundamentals and

119
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: things that really make a difference in winning games. So

120
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: it seems like you guys used to practice squad a

121
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: little bit different than a lot of other teams. Maybe

122
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: haven't caught up to that with the new rules and

123
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 1: bringing bringing guys in sort of low risk and and

124
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 1: and getting you want to feel pharaohs there now, Um,

125
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: you know, how how quickly did you adapt to those rules?

126
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: And what do you like them? And do you hope

127
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: they stay permanent? I think there's plus and honestors through

128
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 1: the rules. I think the plus would be, you know,

129
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: the practice squads always kind of you know how you

130
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: can build your own the roster depth and it's truly

131
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: the developed players. We tell guys all time, we're not

132
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: looking for, you know, a group fu rooties come out

133
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: here and just run around with high energy. We want

134
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: guys to improve as players, to make our team better,

135
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: and one guy is constantly competing to be on the field.

136
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: We get all these guys ready to play every week

137
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: because they will eventually, and you know, if we do

138
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 1: it the right way, we should have a number of

139
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: guys from our practice squad step up and make contributions

140
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 1: to make our roster. Trent Harris is a great example.

141
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: He got Special Teams Player of the Week for us

142
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: this week. In the game, he's a guy that in

143
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 1: the last two weeks been elevated. He's a guy that

144
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 1: stays ready, you know, whether it's short notice or you know,

145
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: he's kind of been that limbo sometimes. He's done a

146
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 1: great job for us last two weeks stepping up, being

147
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: ready and being productive forces and players. So there's a

148
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: number of those guys that step in with the rules.

149
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: With the vets this year, it definitely changed a lot

150
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: of things that are out there, and you know, I

151
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: think this is kind of a talking point for both sides,

152
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: and we talk about the plus and minds of it.

153
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: With the rules for the vets being on the practice squad.

154
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: What that's really changed, you know, just in the last

155
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: two years is the availability of who you can go

156
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: ahead and bring an add your roster. So the importance

157
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 1: of getting on that practice squad up early and then

158
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 1: staying after it often of making sure whoever is available

159
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,799
Speaker 1: you you know, every opportunity you get to get somebody

160
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: in that can fill a spot for you, you think

161
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: you can really go ahead and meet a need for

162
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: you want to try to do that because eventually, you

163
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: know there's not gonna be that, you know, inventory on

164
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: the street like they used to be used to be

165
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: at a guy hurt on Sunday Tuesday, at a log

166
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: list of workouts. You pick someone Tuesday morning, you'd meet

167
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 1: with them, you know, Tuesday afternoon. They're practicing your team

168
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,359
Speaker 1: on Wednesday. The reality now is the inventory on the

169
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: street is so much less because most of the good

170
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 1: football players there as good players out there, but most

171
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 1: of the better football players already on someone's practice squad.

172
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 1: Kind of in that you know, holding pattern to when

173
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,039
Speaker 1: they get elevated or taken off for somebody else's roster

174
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: is the answer. But you what is the keys to

175
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: like good red zone defense? And what have you guys

176
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: been doing so well these last three games? Communications huge.

177
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: I think communication is a big part of red zone

178
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: defense because when we talk about the red zone, you know,

179
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: once the space gets restricted, you know, the speed of

180
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: the game picks up so much faster. Okay, the ball

181
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: has gotta come out faster, it's gotta be more accurate.

182
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: Sus have to get open fast or make tougher more

183
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: contested catches. Defense had to be, you know, in their

184
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: spot right away. So when you're working out the skies,

185
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: you've got to make sure you adjust and get there

186
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 1: right after the snap because those tight windows are going

187
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: to hit. So any space there is in the defense,

188
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: the optens will find a way to get it. You know,

189
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: most teams in the red zone are using some kind

190
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: of indicator to figure out what you're in and find

191
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: out where the best matchup is. So you know, whether

192
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: it's zone you're talking about spacing and vision, if it's

193
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 1: man you're talking about leverage, you know, you've got to

194
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: make sure that everyone's working off each other complimentary that

195
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: wherever your help is, whether it's zone or man, you're

196
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: working with that man because any types any space that's open,

197
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: they're gonna fit in there very tightly. But think, you know,

198
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: when you talk about why is the team been more

199
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: productive in recent games in red area, you know, I

200
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: think Patton and staff done a good job with the plan.

201
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 1: I think the player has done a really good job

202
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: of coming out and practicing and executing it. We've done

203
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: some different things in terms of how we prepare for

204
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: the red zone. We put more of a focus on

205
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: it earlier in the week. We've spent more time walking

206
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: through and introducing it and then going ahead and hit

207
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: it with better tempo later in the week. I think

208
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: something that's carrying over in terms of the understanding and

209
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: obviously execution on the field. But I think it always

210
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: comes down and have a good fundamounts. There's a lot

211
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: of players last week, you know, whether it was you know,

212
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: take Crowder having that tip pass, and that comes down

213
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: to really his own vision reading the quarterback flowing off

214
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: in the same play right behind him was a dory

215
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: and tight coverage, you know, and he was really playing

216
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: more the man element of that defense. Right there to

217
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: play restrictive there. James Bribery had a good past break

218
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: up force and a third down, you know, to get

219
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: the defense off the field, and that really came into

220
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: us just playing with good leverage and man moving his

221
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: feet and just playing through the catchpoint to break that

222
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: thing up. So to me, it all ties back into

223
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 1: the fundamentals. The other stuff is all critically important. You've

224
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: got to you know, know know what the call is, not,

225
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: a sign is executed correctly, communicate to make sure on

226
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: the same page. But ultimately you've got to do with

227
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: good fundmomals show for a big picture. Do you look

228
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: at all at the rest of the NFC this week

229
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 1: where you guys are compared to the other teams in

230
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 1: the playoff chase, and does last year's experience out at

231
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: all when you guys didn't necessarily have their record. But

232
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 1: we're in it because you know, the relay the other

233
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,200
Speaker 1: team's records. Now, the biggest thing we're focusing on right

234
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 1: now is just us and proving ourselves as a team

235
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 1: and go one know each week, and you know you

236
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: do that, it'll take care of itself. In the big picture,

237
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 1: we're so far away from the end of the season

238
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: where all this stuff really comes together. Are you consciously

239
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: what's going on the rest of the league. You are,

240
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: but are you focused on it? No? Really, right now

241
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 1: the most important things we play our best football, but

242
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: we match up against whoever we play. There's a chance

243
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: when you come out of the break you'll have the

244
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: majority of your skilled players. Well, you'll be able to

245
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: dictate more to defenses in the sense that they can't

246
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: solely double on ship or somebody like that. Okay, well

247
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: that works to your advantage, and it all depends on

248
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,679
Speaker 1: who the defense is and how they view what you're

249
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: doing is schematically how they want to play it. You know,

250
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: we're not going to call defensive form, so I can't

251
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 1: tell exactly what they're gonna do. We want to have

252
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: all our players back and healthy, and that's definitely something

253
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: you know, we focus on. However, more important than that,

254
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:43,839
Speaker 1: it's whoever is available at the game for them to

255
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: be up to be productive. So I'm pleased with the

256
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: way guys have stepped up make contributions throughout the year.

257
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: We continuously see guys improved throughout practice and when they

258
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: get to the game, they've done a solid job. Force.

259
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: So you know, we won't try and get our own

260
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: back and healthy, but our main focus is going to

261
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: be whoever is available Maxims and you know they're ating

262
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 1: to Burton Burns and Deeth. Do you think he's gonna

263
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 1: he's gonna be good spirits? You know, soon we get

264
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: Burton back in here, we will um him and his

265
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: wife Connie are you know, kind of over and you

266
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: know the condor right now kind of hanging out and

267
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,719
Speaker 1: he's staying connected through zooms. We've obviously been talked to him,

268
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 1: you know constantly, between him and Brightwell, they're they're both

269
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 1: engaged and acted the meetings and with us, you know,

270
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: there's just some time of some getting back in the

271
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: building
